When the competitors for the last match returned to the locker room, I could hear the other CZW workers applauding them.
The second match of the first round features Nick Mondo vs. Jay and Mark Briscoe. The crowd chanted Mondo's name and he told the crowd that he doesn't care about the fans and that they are sheep and cattle. He said the fans need help as they want to see him get injured and kill himself. The crowd applauded and chanted his name. Sickos! Mondo said he doesn't know who called the police at their show last week in Smyrna, Delaware but they better call them again as he's going to kill the Briscoes. The Briscoes are accompanied by Dewey Donovan. Dewey says he isn't going to let the fans ruin his night. He tells the Briscoes to take out Mondo. Mondo and one of the Briscoes face off. The other soon joins in and they try to doubleteam him. Mondo goes for a moonsault but is dropkicked and crotched. The Briscoes both give him a neckbreaker off the ropes. One of the Briscoes held Mondo upside down for the other to dropkick. He then turned him into a Boston Crab to let the other dropkick him again. Sick! One of the Briscoes hit a sick springboard dive into the stratosphere on Mondo to the floor. The other then did a twisting corkscrew plancha. Awesome. The Briscoes began taking it to the other back in the ring but were broken up by Mondo. Mondo gets two steel chairs. He gets up and literally holds them as the Briscoes hit top rope dropkicks into them. They both hit stereo chokeslams and standing moonsaults on Mondo. They set up Mondo on top of the chairs.

Mondo attacked both and laid them out before being pulled to the back. The Briscoes go on to face each other in the second round tonight. Lots of innovative spots here. The table spot was insane.

Trent cradled Maximo for the pin. Maximo is out. It's Trent vs....Ruckus in the second round. I have no idea what's up with Juvi other than he's late.
Next up is as six man tag team attraction as Jeff Rocker, Danny Rose, and Adam Flash take on Eddie Valentine, John Dahmer, and ...no one! Their manager Mac Smack said that they have a math problem but last week, Ruckus showed a good showing in the Three-Way and invite him to team up with them.
